Hi,

Quote:
You should also periodically check for feature updates (including documentation updates). Follow these steps:

From the Message Brokers Toolkit, click on the Help menu and select Software Updates > New Updates. Eclipse then searches for available updates.
Eclipse displays which updates are available. Select which of these you want to install.
When you select updates to install, you will receive a warning that the features have not been digitally signed. You can ignore this warning.
After you have installed the features, Eclipse prompts you to restart the workbench.
After you have restarted the workbench, the new features are installed and ready to use.


Our production admin console (toolkit) doesn't have an internet connection Anyone an idea how I can upgrade my eclipse stuff on such a machine.

I know that no development should take place on the production toolkit and I know we can deploy from command line so we shouldn't need the toolkit for production, but that is not what my question is about

Just can't imagine I m the only one with a toolkit without internet connection.


Tx,

KP

You can download the updates on another machine, and then copy them to a network drive, and then load them from Update Manager that way.

But I don't know where to download them seperately.

Basically what I have been doing is grabing the latest windows version of the broker CSD and putting it onto a CD (They normally fit no problem), then I hand carry the disk to the machine in question. There is no "toolkit" only version. I have the same problem, but magnified, since the built in update feature doesn't work through a proxy I have the entire development staff to deal with.

Thanks all of you.

I ll paste the download part here, which makes it probably easier for future searches:

Quote:

Installing update without ftp access on "Toolkit" machine
1. on your local drive which has ftp access, create a directory
(c:\tmp\updt), in which you'll create a plugins directory, and a
features directory.
2. connect to update FTP site using Microsoft Internet Explorer or
other Browser. Address is:
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/software/mqseries/fixes/wbimbv50/
3. from FTP site, under MS IE, right-click the 2 folders (plugins /
features) + the site.xml file and select "copy"
4. Under Windows Explorer, go to the local update directory
(c:\tmp\updt) and select "paste"
5. Now either cut a CD with this info or copy the directory acroos to
the toolkit machine.
6. In the toolkit go to Update Manager perspective, in the feature
updates view, expand "My computer" item and go to you local update
directory (or CD copy)
7. Install available updates if any

NOTE

There is no need to download the whole directory contents as this might
take a long time.
Locally create an update directory, with a features and a plugins
directory.
Then, only transfer features / plugins .jar files that are more recent
than the currently installed ones.


This can be checked using the
Help --> About --> feature / plugin details.


From the displayed lists, check on the FTP site if more recent plugins /
features are available. If so, download corresponding .jar files.
